Mine is related to a topic below.
I was working at a large corporation in an office of about 15. Many of us were sports fans. I went to State, there were a couple of Tennessee grads, a Kentucky grad and this girl who went to Nashville State Community College but she was a BIG Alabama fan.
She would talk **** like no one else. "The Tide is gonna roll" was her favorite saying. She was a pleasant person except for when you talked sports. We would mess with her because she would say things like "I hope Alabama plays the Titans so I can go to a game." When we would explain to her why that would not happen, she'd have a confused look on her face.
Well, football season finally came around (She had started in April) and it was Nick Saban;s first year. "Saban is gonna bring us back to the top." Well, as we all know, Saban did not do so hot his first year. She would be obnoxious during game weeks when they played someone in the office. It was to the point where you would have to shut your door. When Alabama played Tennessee, my UT colleague just messed with her and then Bama ended up winning big and he had to take her ****.
Well, MSU game week came around, and she started with the insults - "I did not even know MSU had a team, etc." I didn't say anything because I did not want to put the next week of my life on Croom's shoulders (we did end up winning, and I could not say anything because of what I did next)
Her cubicle was decked out in Alabama crap. She had this little elephant that played the fight song. My UT colleague and myself were big 24 fans so we got the idea to "kidnap" the elephant. We used a rubber band and tied its hands behind its back and made a little blindfold. Then we took the thing around the building and took pictures. We printed out a ransom note and everything - we thought it was funny.
The next morning she came in and threw a fit. By 10 a.m. I was in the Vice President of HR office thinking I was about to be fired. I only had to sign a "respect of personal property" agreement, but I was afraid I was going to get fired because of the *****. She was not a direct report to us, but she was under us - we made her life hell until she got fired for cheating time. (She would drive to the building, punch in, then go park). I caught her and she said "You're going to turn me in aren't you" on the elevator - I said, "Nope, you're going to tell your boss." She made the mistake of telling her boss that it was a one time thing and I just happened to be there. They checked the footage and saw that she had been doing it nearly every day since she started. She got fired - still blames me.
